Fried Rice

Last week I found myself wandering around Trader Joe's wondering what to have for dinner that night. I saw shrimp and chorizo quesadillas on the menu at a restaurant up north, and wanted to try making that. But after only seeing soy chorizo at TJ's, I walked out of the store with only shrimp.

On the way home, I thought of shrimp stir fry. But stir fry is a go-to recipe in our house. We have it for dinner almost every week. Then I thought of fried rice. I used this recipe. We had all the ingredients we needed, so that was great. I doctored it up with the following: I used brown rice instead of white rice, added a bit of fresh ginger and added peas. It turned out great.
